Danny DeVito: Alcoholism Is Not Cute
Danny DeVito, of course, is a much-beloved actor who got his initial bump in 1978 from the quirky and mildly humorous sitom Taxi.
And, that’s right… I stand behind the sentiments in the title:
Attention Danny DeVito: Alcoholism Is Not Cute
And, that’s not to suggest that Mr. DeVito is an alcoholic or has any sort of drinking problem. That is not my suggestion at all. But, what we saw in Mr. DeVito’s View interview and subsequent analysis of the View interview is a very glib and amused interpretation of alcohol.
And, there’s not anything damn funny about alcohol!
While many people all over the world can drink alcohol without a problem, make no mistake, alcohol ruins the lives of millions of people, and, it’s just not a laughing matter… ever! And, it’s especially important that our young people don’t see alcohol being portrayed in such a whimsical way. And, you know, FSDA isn’t very amusing either.
There is nothing damn whimsical about alcohol. And, as Danny DeVito indicates in the video below, George Clooney was with him during this drinking spree. And, that’s fine of course… they are two adults in America, and, obviously they are allowed to enjoy themselves and get intoxicated. More power to them. Don’t think I’m anti-liberty.
But, what I’m against is the light-hearted way the interviewers and public are interpreting their drinking spree. Really, they seem to find it so cute. Well, my point is… don’t act like annihilating yourself with alcohol is fine and dandy.
I just saw George Clooney interviewed, and, he’s smiling and laughing away recounting his and Danny DeVito’s debauchery. He recounts getting bombed out on booze with Arnold Schwarzenegger while they sucked down peach schnapps. And, the interviewer is laughing away.
Listen. It’s about damn time we stopped taking such a casual approach to alcohol. You’re thinking that I sound a bit extreme? Well, alcohol nearly ruined my life. In fact, it damn nearly killed me. Yes, I got help. Now, I’m about to complete my doctorate. And, I’m happy, joyous, and free. All praise to Jesus.
Yours truly,
Katie Witherspoon
